Plantar Fasciitis Surgery

Plantar fasciitis surgery is performed to relieve persistent heel pain caused by inflammation of the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue that runs along the bottom of the foot. When non-surgical treatments like rest, physical therapy, or orthotics fail, surgery may be considered. The procedure often involves releasing tension in the plantar fascia or removing bone spurs. While surgery can provide relief for many, it’s typically seen as a last resort, as most people improve with conservative treatments. Recovery requires rehabilitation to regain strength and mobility in the foot.
